I bought a 93 sc400 for free and paid towing back from Atlanta. I planned to part it and make back some money, but $425 tow bill meant I was keeping the good stuff to cover the bill (engine and tranny only 146k). I never really made anything back cash wise, but I stripped the car and put most of it in bins that I have picked for years of "on hand" parts when I need them and that in itself is priceless.

I got Tein SS coilovers for $350 because the kid got them because his friend told him they were good, but he didnt know how to adjust them so he wanted to get rid of them.
